Communicate 2009 - October 21/22 - HP Labs, Bristol
Communicate is the only conference to focus specifically on improving the
standards and effectiveness of communication about conservation and the
environment. An average of 175 delegates attend Communicate, including
natural history filmmakers, representatives from local, national and
international environmental and conservation organisations, business, policy
makers, media, and national and local government bodies.
The focus is to provide delegates with a solutions-based approach to
conservation communication. The conference leads to action by giving
environmental communicators the understanding and tools they need to
communicate complex messages to a range of audiences.
